1 1/4 cups flour
1/2 cup cocoa
1 pinch salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
5 medium eggs
1 1/4 cups sugar
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 ounce dark chocolate (Melted)
1/2 cup milk
4 ounces butter
2 cups heavy whipping cream
4 tablespoons powdered sugar
4 tablespoons chocolate syrup, like Hershey's
2 tablespoons cocoa
2 teaspoons vanilla

Steps:

Sift flour, cocoa, salt and baking powder. Set aside.
Beat eggs and sugar until thick and creamy. Add oil and vanilla.
Beat 5 minutes.
Add melted chocolate.
Place milk and butter in saucepan and stir until butter has melted and mixture comes to a boil. Remove at once.
Add milk mixture alternately to the egg mixture with sifted dry ingredients. (I do not let it cool before alternately adding with the dry ingredients.).
Pour into 2- 9 inch round greased and floured (or use cocoa) pans and bake at 350* for 10-15 minutes.(do not overbake, layers are thin).
Cool, fill and frost as desired.
Filling instructions:.
Beat all ingredients until spreading consistency (I beat quite stiff). Decorate with white chocolate shavings.
Note: There is enough whipped frosting to generously fill in between the layers.
